Matthew 9:37--10:4
9:37 Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few.
9:38 Therefore ask the Lord of the harvest
to send out
workers into his harvest.”
Sending Out the Twelve Apostles
10:1 Jesus called his twelve disciples and gave them authority over unclean spirits so they could cast them out and heal every kind of disease and sickness.
10:2 Now these are the names of the twelve apostles: first, Simon (called Peter), and Andrew his brother; James son of Zebedee and John his brother;
10:3 Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus;
10:4 Simon the Zealot and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him.
